dusting, or anything that has to do with dust. i get allergic rhinitis, that's why. i don't mind doing other yucky stuff. i'm glad we have vacuum cleaners nowadays. it helps to prevent major allergy attacks. and i'm glad i always have a handful of antihistamines with me, wherever i go.

oh for furniture i don't have a choice but to do it manually, using a cloth, a special cloth or an ordinary one, whatever's available. i guess there's just no way to totally avoid dust. it's a part of life :o

I'd have to say that the thing I hate most is doing the dishes. I hate doing the dishes. The rest of it I don't mind so much. I don't mind vacuuming, or anything. But the dishes, I just never want to do, but I know I have to do, because my fiance and I don't have a dishwasher. So, that's why we have to do ourselves.

I totally agree isabella123! I am not liking it when I have to do the dusting. I hate dust, they easily penetrate my nose, down to my lungs that sometimes I have a hard time breathing, I don't know. I don't really have an asthma, I just think that my disliking of doing it has something to do with that sort of allergic reaction. There are also time that I sneeze- so hard, many times, and it takes more than an hour before I fully recover with that kind of reaction. Like you, I prefer to just wash the dishes, fold, fix, those things that needs to be done. Thank you for your post. I enjoy answering it.

There are two things that I dislike about keeping house: Dishes, I do not have a dish washer and so I get to do it and it is not fun at all. I am going to buy a dishwasher this year. The second is dusting. I do not like dust but when I clean it off my stuff it attacks me and I have a runny nose for the rest of the day. YUCK.

I'm probably the minority here when I say I really do not mind cleaning. It's the fact that I constantly have to come home and reclean things that I've just cleaned previously because no one can either do it themselves or keep it clean is what bothers me the most. I'd rather do it once and not have to do it again for awhile.

I don't know if the thing I hate worse is technically house work, but it is part of taking care of a household. I hate sorting socks. It always takes so long. If that doesn't count then I guess I will say cleaning up after dinner. Because of my husband's job we eat pretty late in the evening, and I so tired after dinner I would just prefer to relax.

I don't like to look for a lost sock...lol!But i guess i would rather relax too and not clean either.lol

I HATE dusting. I do not mind cleaning it but the fact is that you dust the entire house in the afternoon and then by the evening you would find the entire thing would be covered by a layer of dust all over again. It is so irritating and that is the reason I hate doing it.Apart from that I don't hate anything in particular. :)

What I dislike the most about cleaning my house is probably the cat's area. The food they spill everywhere, the litter that they kick outside the box. All their litter in general, argh. I hate it. I don't mind any other part of cleaning. I even enjoy most part of cleaning!! But kitty litter... Sigh, I just don't like it :(

I don't have a cat,but i do work in someone's home who as a cat and i really don't like to have to clean up the litter and it's not the poop that bother me it's the actual litter.It fall all over and it's dusty too...argg!

I like cleaning everything except the dishes. We don't have a dish washer, so everything is washed by hand. I wash dishes every other day and it stinks. I have to hand dry everything and it seems to take forever. I love to clean though. Especially laundry. I have OCD about how my laundry is folded and put away and if anyone else does it, I will take everything out of the drawers and redo everything. My husband just leaves it all to me so I don't spend needless hours on the floor redoing everything.

I hate cleaning the kitchen, especially the lampblack machine. cause so many oil made my hands feel rough. But i thought a lot of good idea. Such as i put some plastic paper on the wall of the kitchen, and often to replace the new one; also i often clean the kitchen at once after my cooking, doesn't let the dirty things gather.

I dont know what I hate most about cleaning my house well mainly my rooms since thats all I have to clean. I guess its the organizing that I hate the most since it takes the longest to do and I usally forget that I organized the item then I cant find it.

I don't know that I hate anything specifically about house cleaning. I think I dislike cleaning in general. I think it's because I'm the only one who really does the cleaning. I'm stilling working on getting my husband to help out more without me having to ask him. I'll do it because I don't like a messy house.

yeah i would say my room, specaily when it comes to my wife dresser since she has so much things on it. and try to remember to put it back in the right place so she can find it since she has bad eyes. but other then that i don't mind cleaning my house. i just hate when someone tries to help and get in my way yes i am a man who's clean.. lol.

As a man, I dislike to do any kind of housework. But prefer to dish washing and toilet bowl cleaning, I prefer to the dusting. That will be much easier for me.LOL.
